Map Data Information
One of Garmin’s goals is to provide customers with the
most complete and accurate cartography available to us at a
reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and
private data sources, which we identify as required in product
literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer.
Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data
to some degree. This is particularly true for areas outside the
United States, where complete and accurate digital data is either
not available or is prohibitively expensive.
If the data source lacks a feature, or if an item is mislocated or
misidentified, it will be incorrectly identified or missing in the
Garmin cartography product as well. Each MapSource product
has its strengths and weaknesses, and not all are suitable for
every purpose. Please keep this in mind as you use and enjoy
the benefits the cartography provides.
Garmin encourages customers to report any errors found in our
electronic maps by completing our online Error Reporting Form
in the Cartography section of our Web site: http://www.garmin
.com/cartography/mapSource/errorForm.html .
